***, drugs, and alcohol got the best of you
and now all that's left is the rest of you
We haven’t met
I hardly know you
But
I’m dragging you into my mess

Because I think I like you
Or I think I think I like you
Something like that

Or maybe I think that you think that I think I only like you because you’re someone to like who hasn’t burned me yet but I think you think I think you think we’re just friends

Man

**** this
I’m not confident on my feelings anymore
I’ve never received a flower
Or even a rose
But I’m a guy
So it’s acceptable I suppose
No kisses
Or sweets
No treats
That signifies ones feelings for me
No token of ones love
But I have gotten
Disappointment
Watered with hate
Planted in betrayal
Fertilized with lies
And maintained by fakes
Roses are Red
But my roses are dead
And crumble beneath my feet
I drove past my house last night
Just to see what it’d be like

Pass by those walls that held me
Past that place that built me up
And tore me down

Going 55 past the place we had our firsts
First real heartbreak
First Cut
First panic attack
First love

I’m not afraid of leaving
I’m more afraid of coming back
And only thinking about
Home
Did anyone ever thought
about this fraternal oneness,
why we are all in this universe
and so profoundly related.
Did you know that beneath
the differences of different
people lies only one man nature.
One world and one people.
Different beliefs but one source.
Varied culture and tradition
but one humanness.
Drinking same fountain of water
from above and below the earth.
All breathing same air,
what one breathes out,
another takes in.
We blend and merge together,
resonating in synergy to bring
desired octaves in response
to a beautiful and blissful sequence,
with different forms and
different wavelength Interwoven
holistically in wholeness.
As one sleeps the other awakes,
in different geographic areas,
sharing the same sun and moon,
as the stars shine daily bears witness,
though it is only seen in part in accord
with whoever is in the light or dark,
it's brightness is shown in the dark
only when the moon shines,
and hidden in the brightness of the sun,
as one is in the light with the sun,
the other is in dark with the moon.
We still shines as the stars in the
sky even though we don't know it.
Don't mess up what is so important
in your life just because you are
a little unsure of who you are.
Be truly your neighbors keeper,
for we are all related.

The level of greatness
Starts with the inside of you
Developing slowly to the outer part of ones self
Emerging ever so slightly
With great intentions to portray and to release
All the negativity and positivity
Into the raging waves of the ocean
To create a pattern, never duplicated, but always moving
Even with the underlying messages
To reach the total level of greatness
Called “You and Your Life’s Challenges and Changes”
It must be heaven
in your arms,
because I see heaven
in your eyes.
In your arms is
where I want to be,
closing my eyes
there is bliss and
it is healing for me,
I find solace and safety
in its tranquil transmutation.
It is comforting to have
you as my friend.
My heart knows peace with you.
Your words are soothing,
like a melodious
symphony orchestra,
it makes me feel so
much reassured and better.
Life, this life has no meaning
without you in it.
I'm so glad to have you in my world.
With you I desire nothing more,
for with your touch everything prospers,
with your presence everything blooms.
The sky is beautiful and brighter.
Thank you for sharing your life with me.
You choose me and truly gave everything,
not minding my idiosyncrasies and imperfections.
They all melted away by your presence.
With your magical touch like a genie,
you transmogrified my life,
I became a better person.
I say thank you for everything.

Look into mine eyes
tell me what thou see

I see a prison, a soul
with hopes of escaping

I see padded walls
with a crazed man aching

I see deep sorrow
a human breaking

I see a gray sky
always raining

I see a husk of skin
eternally forsaking

I see a chasm
forever isolating

I see a mind
always creating
and hating
thy creation

I gazed upon thine eyes
and I saw hell in thy pupils
